17-Year-Old Trapped In A 100 Year Old's Body Passes Away From A Heartbreaking Disease

no title

Three years ago, Hayley Okines was part of a documentary chronicling her genetic condition that caused her to age prematurely. She suffered from progeria, a rare disease that ages the body eight times its normal rate.

Yesterday, the 17-year-old sadly passed away in the arms of her mother Kerry Okines, who posted on Facebook last night:

"My baby girl has gone somewhere better. She took her last breath in my arms at 9.39pm x."

Hayley became well known after she starred in World's Oldest Teenager: Extraordinary People, where at 17 years old, she had the body of a 105-year-old. Kerry spoke about the hell of living with her daughter's disease in a 2013 interview

Meghan Markle Has Found 'Certain Rules' Of Being A Royal 'Difficult To Understand'

If we married Prince Harry, a lot of things would be hard for us.

Apparently the same is true for Meghan Markle, who according to a source in the new issue of People "has found certain rules in the royal household difficult to understand."

Like what? Well, right off the bat there are some fashion rules which seem to be less official Royal etiquette and more Queen Elizabeth's old-fashioned taste, "like the fact that the Queen prefers women in dresses or skirts rather than trouser suits."

Of course, what is official Royal etiquette if not the Queen's decisions?

The source says the new Duchess "is often asking Harry why things have to be done in a certain way."
